Daily Words of the Buddha ~ November 27, 2014

buddha radiant
Hitānukampī sambuddho
yadaññamanusāsati,
anurodhavirodhehi
vippamutto tathāgato.

When the Buddha teaches others
he does so out of compassion,
because the Tathagata is wholly freed
from both favour and aversion.

Saṃyutta Nikāya 1.150

Gemstones of the Good Dhamma,
compiled and translated by Ven. S. Dhammika
